- Camp Hagshama was founded in 1948 by the Zionist Organization of Canada as a summer camp for children between the ages of 9 and 13. It was administered by the National Camps Association in conjunction with the regional committee, although, daily operations and staffing were provided by Canadian Young Judaea.
- Camp Hagshama was located in Mont Tremblant, Quebec. The Camp merged with Camp Kinneret in 1976, after it began to experience financial problems.
